Modi Meets Bangladesh's Yunus in Bangkok Amid Diplomatic Strains and Regional Security Concerns

Prime Minister Narendra Modi met Bangladesh's Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus in Bangkok during the BIMSTEC Summit, amid strained ties between the nations. The meeting follows Yunus’s controversial remarks on India’s Northeast, and India’s concerns over attacks on minorities in Bangladesh. Tensions have also risen due to Sheikh Hasina's asylum in India and growing Bangladesh-Pakistan military ties. Though Dhaka requested prior bilateral talks, Modi initially declined. This meeting is the first since Hasina’s ouster and may indicate cautious diplomatic re-engagement. #ModiYunusMeet #BangladeshIndiaTies #BIMSTEC2025 #DiplomaticTensions #IndiaBangladesh #ModiInBangkok #GeopoliticsAsia #SouthAsiaSummit #BIMSTECDialogue #SheikhHasina #MinorityRights #BangladeshPolitics #IndiaForeignPolicy #YunusRemarks #ModiDiplomacy #AsiaSummits #BangladeshAsylumIssue #PakistanISI #ModiBangladeshTalks #NortheastIndia ~ED.103~HT.336~GR.124~

Murshidabad Waqf Violence: Why Is West Bengal Spiraling Out of Control?

The Murshidabad Waqf Violence has shaken the very conscience of the nation. What began as legislative reform through the Waqf Amendment Act has now turned into a brutal reminder of how communal tensions can be weaponised. In Murshidabad, West Bengal, Hindu families are fleeing, internet has been suspended, and over 150 arrests have been made. A shocking video of threats being issued to Hindus has gone viral, sparking debates on radicalisation, law and order and state complicity. Is this mere protest or a deeper network at play? Why is Mamata Banerjee silent? Has the Waqf Amendment been hijacked for vote-bank politics? We explore how Murshidabad Waqf Violence reveals the cracks in Bengal’s governance. The Murshidabad Waqf Violence is no longer a local issue—it’s a national alarm bell. #MurshidabadWaqfViolence #BengalBurning #WaqfAmendmentAct #HinduExodus #RadicalismExposed ~HT.178~PR.282~GR.125~
